Bakeries in the US and China

中美面包店的差异

There are lots of pastries available in US bakeries. Throughout the US, you can find bakeries especially in many regional and international cuisines. But when it comes to typical American baked goods, most shops sell treats such as cookies, brownies, and cupcakes.

美国的面包店有很多糕点可供选择。在美国各地，尤其是在许多地方美食店和国际美食店，你都可以找到面包店。但要说典型的美国烘焙食品，大部分商店会卖饼干、布朗尼和纸杯蛋糕等。

The first time you walk into a Chinese bakery is a little like stepping into Willy Wonka's factory. Buns come with dozens of fillings. Chinese bakeries are known for selling flavorful buns filled with everything from roast pork (char siu) to purple yam.

而第一次走进中国面包店会有点像走进Willy Wonka的巧克力工厂。他们的面包馅料五花八门。中国面包店以出售各种馅料的可口面包而闻名，馅料从叉烧到紫薯应有尽有。
